Here’s a pull-tab card I made using My Favorite Things “Adorable Elephant” stamp set. The idea behind this card was to make it look like the balloon (die by Mama Elephant) was pulling the elephant into the air as you pulled on the tab.

I stated by die cutting the balloon and elephant. The hardest part was figuring out how to position the tab so that the sentiment would be seen after being pulled, but the elephant wouldn’t go past the edge of the balloon.

After several attempts I got it to work the way I wanted. Here’s a phone shot I took of whats going on behind the balloon:

Once that was squared away all the was left was to stamp and color the scene below the balloon (all colored with copics).

Pattern by Carolina Guzman of One and Two Company. She also has an amigurumi version of the dino, which you can purchase separately or as a bundle.

I also plan on adding the cozy itself as an item in my etsy store for anyone that does not want to crochet one themselves.

Just shipped two character drink cozies for my first etsy sale!
